Steve,
Just seen your car in Ian's (hubnut) video of Rustival.
Shame he didn't mention it, just walked past it!

Hope you had a good drive back.

In the summer when changing the fuel pipes an eagle eyed member spotted some crusty metal on the offside rear turret. I missed this at the time but knew over the winter it would be on my list of jobs to do so this week I have embarked on the strip out to do this job.

I am also going top replace the front calipers with freshly refurbed ones a friend has done for me
retrim the door cards I am going to try a cheap fix first and if not happy will have them redone to match the seats which aren't original
I also need to sort the gear linkage out as its awfully difficult to select some gears
I also want to change the ignition key/barrel as my understanding is this is the route of a power problem and the reason a by pass system has been put in
